Have Some More Apocalypses

The Apocalypse

The full lips
The Apocalyptic hip chicks
in all their empty splendor
wrapping their tiny arms around
an anatomic event.


A ‘relativisation’ to be sure. We’re all hedging our assertions
and imagining eschatological rescue feats. Esquetrology predicts we’ll be dead when Equuleus nips the seventh star of Pegasus.
This has all been clearly indicated in the fairest apocraphalyspal tradition
Mainlining a fresh set of perambulations.

Fuck this apocalypse

Have another.

Your druthers

Drubbers all

Volunteer

Have another from the recesses of guttural responses predating all columns

of molded vain roundness

Forget these artifacts “that still stand”
Have this other
Purely nonfosselized
still not organic nor growing
nonexistant
as far as tell can
see
nonetheless fortuitous
(as given on Mount Supposition)
Sacred ground sans firma
particlesplit.

It’s a glorious!place one doesn’t have to believe in
Your own potential was seen once or infinite
in one form or another
formulizing debt to a cause
Formalizing existence
only to see it all come crashing down.
Well, fuck that apocalypse!
Have yet another.

“Check, please.”

a pocket I Ching
ain’t nuthin but a series
of 64’s and 6 threes
a blurry-eyed cross
between a hotspot on the earth
and a universal first time for everything

but hey! it’s as simple as that hat and flat Rockefeller ring finger
Save your monkeys in a lilac bag of fuck you
and roll

A hat full of feathers and bubble gum and troops
set loose with the Three Pigmen of the Apocaloops


trapped inside marbles

on a sacred playing surface of your choice.

    Thanks that was relaxing and surprising, exciting sometimes too. Your wordplay is often inventive, balanced with lyricism and then some of it seems to balance like a tightrope walker who bungee jumps or does something lively, and too insane for me to ever do, certainly not in a tutu nor leotard; it seems more like a changing shadow that convinces me it’s a person.

    The gentleness is always welcome and so believably apparent, all the way through like a breeze it feels true.

    “on a sacred playing surface of your choice.” Is the best last line I’ve ever read in my opinion, but it is late at night here in Aotearoa New Zealand, and I am half asleep

    however…. The monkeys saved in a lilac bag line quite possibly slayed me so I guess this may be heaven, nothing like the brochures, thank goodness. Thanks.

    Wondering lonely as an awkward crowd

    may make me feel
    I found myself here for thrum reasons –
    only now admitted, daffy-dilly –
    the fridge suggestive cooling with humming.

    Ihrums began in rumoured emails
    – (not as banal as insecurities interrupting),
    more certain of do did good – bed circling
    pelvic, centric, in cushy.

    Yes thrumming memory
    associations
    of purpose, uh full uhm um

    catapulting uh m m.

    Now thrown into completely, myself
    licking ice-cream – favourite flavours
    with coconut cream, one boisenberry
    purplish….

    Appliances attempt thrums
    but not samey like looks real uh shivery
    good-shock fingerings
    for that song, huh, uh a few
    times.

    Guitar acoustic talking through a hole
    from that curvy body.
    You must feel the globe loves my lines
    travelling?
    all covering ways lovely sending us
    slick sluicing
    on.

    Copied for my performance soon at a local NZ university. Uhh huh.
